2018 Plant Fairs

The British Ironwork Centre not only boasts a working smithy and a showroom featuring the biggest choice of quality British ironware for both indoors and garden use but also the Shropshire Sculpture Park featuring a safari in ironwork that has to be seen to be believed!

The venue has lots to see and explore with something for all ages, plus the bonus of a great Plant Hunters Fair to enjoy!

Entry to fair and all other attractions: £1.00 per person in aid of local charities

So far our plant fairs have raised over £4700 for Hope House.
